Description Explorer's Map: Baqueira

This home is a wonderful find in the mountain town of Baqueira. It's a brilliant gateway to the area's natural wonders and makes the ideal place to kick back and relax between your excursions.

You'll love the soft colour scheme and natural wood, which create a homely vibe. On chilly days you can warm up on the comfy sofa as you watch a movie and sip a hot chocolate. Or, if the weather is warmer, head out onto the terrace to breathe in the fresh alpine air over a glass of wine. When you need to refuel, you can cook up your favourite hearty dishes in the kitchen, and gather around the table to feast as you plan your next adventure.

In the wintertime, skiers and snowboarders can take a short walk over to the lifts that will transport you up to the Baqueira Beret ski resort. During the summer, hikers and cyclists can hit the trails and explore the magnificent Val d'Aran, with its peaks and meadows. And, there's also plenty of entertainment on offer in the town – don't forget to visit one of the local tapas bars.
